Changes in parental smoking during pregnancy and risks of adverse birth outcome...
Philips, EM; Santos, S; Trasande, L; Aurrekoetxea, JJ; Barros, H; von Berg, A; Bergström, A; Bird, PK; Brescianini, S; Ní Chaoimh, C; Charles, MABackground. Fetal smoke exposure is a common and key avoidable risk factor for birth complications and seems to influence later risk of overweight. It is unclear whether this increased risk is also present if mothers smoke during the first trimester only or reduce the number of cigarettes during pregnancy, or when only fathers smoke. We aimed to assess the associations of parental smoking during pregnancy, spec...
Maternal body mass index, gestational weight gain, and the risk of overweight a...
Voerman, E; Santos, S; Patro Golab, B; Amiano, P; Ballester, F; Barros, H; Bergström, A; Charles, MA; Chatzi, L; Chevrier, C; Chrousos, GPMaternal obesity and excessive gestational weight gain may have persistent effects on offspring fat development. However, it remains unclear whether these effects differ by severity of obesity, and whether these effects are restricted to the extremes of maternal body mass index (BMI) and gestational weight gain. We aimed to assess the separate and combined associations of maternal BMI and gestational weight gai...

Santos, S; Voerman, E; Amiano, P; Barros, H; Beilin, LJ; Bergström, A; Charles, MA; Chatzi, L; Chevrier, C; Chrousos, GP; Corpeleijn, E; Costa, OObjective To assess the separate and combined associations of maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and gestational weight gain with the risks of pregnancy complications and their population impact. Design Individual participant data meta-analysis of 39 cohorts. Setting Europe, North America, and Oceania. Population 265 270 births. Methods Information on maternal pre-pregnancy BMI, gestational weight gai...
Gestational weight gain charts for different body mass index groups for women i...
Santos, S; Eekhout, I; Voerman, E; Gaillard, R; Barros, H; Charles, MA; Chatzi, L; Chevrier, C; Chrousos, GP; Corpeleijn, E; Costet, N; Crozier, SBackgroundGestational weight gain differs according to pre-pregnancy body mass index and is related to the risks of adverse maternal and child health outcomes. Gestational weight gain charts for women in different pre-pregnancy body mass index groups enable identification of women and offspring at risk for adverse health outcomes. We aimed to construct gestational weight gain reference charts for underweight, n...
European birth cohorts for environmental health research
Vrijheid, M; Casas, M; Bergström, A; Carmichael, A; Cordier, S; Eggesbø, M; Eller, E; Fantini, MP; Fernández, MF; Fernández-Somoano, A; Gehring, UBackground: Many pregnancy and birth cohort studies investigate the health effects of early-life environmental contaminant exposure. An overview of existing studies and their data is needed to improve collaboration, harmonization, and future project planning. Objectives: Our goal was to create a comprehensive overview of European birth cohorts with environmental exposure data. Methods: Birth cohort studies were...
